Subject: Prospective Project 
 
Complements of the Day, 
 
I am contacting you concerning a deceased customer and an investment he placed  
under our banks management three years ago, and I would respectfully r 
request that you keep the contents of this mail confidential and respect the 
integrity of the information you come by as a result of this mail. 
I am contacting you independently of our investigation and no one is informed of this 
communication. I would like to intimate you with certain facts that I believe 
would be of interest to you. 
 
 
In the year 2004, the subjects matter; came to our bank to engage in business 
discussions. He informed us that he had a financial portfolio of Eight Million 
three hundred and seventy Thousand  British Pounds Sterling, which he wished 
to have us turn over(invest) on his behalf. 
 
 
I decided to treat his case personally; I made numerous suggestions in line 
with my duties as the de-facto chief Intermediary Sales department of the 
bank, especially given the volume of funds he wished to put into our bank. We 
met on numerous occasions prior to any investments being placed. I encouraged 
him to consider various growth funds with prime ratings. The favored route in 
my advice to customers is to start by assessing data on 6000 traditional 
stocks and bond managers and 2000 managers of alternative investments. Based 
on my advice, we spun the money around various opportunities and made 
attractive margins for our first months of operation, the accrued profit and 
interest stood at this point at over One million United States Dollars, this 
margin was not the full potential of the fund but he desired low risk 
guaranteed returns on investments. 
 
 
In November 2005, he asked that the money be liquidated because he needed to 
make an urgent investment requiring cash payments in Finland . Where he 
said,he is investing with a Firm that is building a housing estate outside 
Helsinki for the government of Finland . He directed that I liquidate the 
investment and deposit the funds with a security firm. I informed him that 
our Bank would have to make special arrangements to have this done 
and in order not to circumvent due process, the bank would have to make a 9.5 
% deduction from the funds to cater for banking and statutory charges. He 
complained about the charges but later came around when I explained to him the 
complexities of the task he was asking of us. 
 
 
Cash movement across boarders has become especially strict since the incidents 
of 9/11. I contacted my affiliate and made the funds available to a security 
firm. I undertook all the processes and made sure I followed his precise 
instructions to the letter and had the funds deposited with the security firm 
The Security Firm is a specialist private firm that accepts deposits from high 
net worth individuals and blue chip corporations that handle valuable products 
or undertake transactions that need immediate access to cash. This small and 
highly private organization is familiar especially to the highly placed and 
well-connected organizations. In line with instructions, the money was 
deposited with the security firm. The Customer told me he wanted the money 
there in anticipation of his arrival from Norway later that week. This was the 
last communication we had, this transpired around 25th February 2006.In June 
last year, we got a  call from the security firm informing us a bout th 
e inactivity of that . 
 
 
This was an astounding position as far as I was concerned, given the fact that 
I managed the private banking sector I was the only one who knew about the 
deposit at the security firm, and I could not understand why the Customer had 
not come forward to claim his deposit. I made futile efforts to locate the 
Customer. I immediately passed the task of locating him to the internal 
investigations department of our Bank Four  days later, information 
started to trickle in, apparently our client was dead. A person who suited his 
description was declared dead of a heart attack in canne, in Southern part of 
France . The body was identified and the cause of death was confirmed. The 
bank immediately launched an investigation into possible surviving next of kin 
to alert them about the situation and also to come forward to claim his 
estate. If you are familiar with private banking affairs, those who patronize 
our services usually prefer anonymity, but also some levels of detachment from 
conventional processes. 
 
 
In his bio-data form, he listed no next of kin. In the field of private 
banking, opening an account with us means no one will know of its 
existence,accounts are rarely held under a name; depositors use numbers and 
codes to kin. Private banking clients apart from not nominating next of kin 
also usually in most cases leave wills in our care, in this case; the deceased 
died without a t estate. In line with our internal processes for account 
holders who have passed away, we instituted our own investigations in good 
faith to determine who should have right to claim the estate. This 
investigation has for the past months been unfruitful. We have scanned every 
continent and used our private investigation affiliate companies to get to the 
root of the problem. It is this investigation that resulted in my being 
furnished with your details as a possible relative of the deceased. 
 
 
My official capacity dictates that I am the only party to supervise the 
investigation and the only party to receive the results of the investigation 
What this means, after investigating the last batch of names forwarded to us 
as possible relatives, we have come to the conclusion that Our dear late 
fellow died with no known or identifiable family member. This leaves me as the 
only person with the full picture of what the prevailing situation is in 
relation to the deposit and the late beneficiary of the deposit. 
According to practice, The Security Firm will by the end of this year 
broadcast a request for statements of claim to our Bank, failing to 
receive viable claims they will most probably revert the deposit back to 
Bank. This will result in the money entering the Bank 
accounting system and the portfolio will be out of my hands and out of the 
private banking division. 
 
 
This will not happen if I have my way. What I wish to relate to you will smack 
of unethical practice but I want you to understand something. It is only an 
outsider to the banking world who finds the internal politics of the banking 
world aberrational. The world of private banking especially is fraught with 
huge rewards for those that occupy certain offices and oversee certain 
portfolios. You should have begun by now to put together the general direction 
of what I propose. There is Eight Million three hundred and seventy Thousand 
British Pounds Sterling deposited in a security firm, 
I alone have the deposit details and they will release the deposit to no one 
unless I instruct them to do so. I alone know of the existence of this deposit 
for as far as establishment is concerned. 
 
 
The transaction with our late customer concluded when I sent the funds to the 
security firm, all outstanding interactions in relation to the file are just 
customer services and due process. The security Firm has no single idea of 
what's the history or nature of the deposit. They are simply awaiting 
instructions to release the deposit to any party that come forward. This is 
the situation. This bank has spent great amounts of money trying to track this 
man's family; they have investigated for months and have found no family. The 
investigation has come to an end. 
 
 
My proposal; I am prepared to place you in a position to instruct the security 
Firm to release the deposit to you as the closest surviving relative. Upon 
receipt of the deposit I am prepared to share the money with you. That is: I 
will simply nominate you as the next of kin and have them release the deposit 
to you and share the proceeds with you in a percentage we will arrive at 
taking into consideration our individual level commitment. I would have gone 
ahead to ask that the funds be released to me, but that would have drawn a 
straight line to me and my involvement in claiming the deposit. But presenting 
you as a relative with the right to claim the deposit as a next of kin will 
mask my involvement and participation in diverting the deposit for personal 
use. You will get all the documents needed to effect this claim immediately 
you notify me of your acceptance to claim this deposit for our mutual benefit. 
I assure you that I could have the deposit released to you within a few days.I 
will simply inform the bank of the final closing of the file relating to the 
deceased. I will then officially communicate with The Security Firm and 
instruct them to release the deposit to you. With these two things: all is 
done. The alternative would be for us to have The Security Firm direct the 
funds to another bank with you as account holder. This way there will be no 
need for you to think of receiving the money from The Security Company. We can 
fine-tune this based on our interactions. I am aware of the consequences of 
this proposal. I ask that if you find no interest in this project that you 
should discard this mail. I ask that you do not be vindictive and destructive. 
If my offer is of no appeal to you, delete this message and forget I ever 
contacted you. 
 
 
Do not destroy my career because you do not approve of my proposal. You may 
not know this but people like myself who have made tidy sums out of comparable 
situations run the whole private banking sector. 
 
 
I am not a criminal and what I do, I do not find against good conscience, this 
may be hard for you to understand, but the dynamics of my industry dictates 
that I make this move. Such opportunities only come ones' way once in a 
lifetime. I cannot let this chance pass me by, for once I find myself in total 
control of my destiny. These chances won't pass me by. I ask that you do not 
destroy my chance, if you will not work with me let me know and let me move on 
with my life but do not destroy me. I am a family man and this is an 
opportunity to provide them with new opportunities. There is a reward for this 
project and it is a task well worth undertaking. 
 
 
I have evaluated the risks and the only risk I have here is from you refusing 
to work with me and alerting my bank. I am the only one who knows of this 
situation, good fortune has blessed you with a luck that has planted you into 
the center of relevance in my life. Let's share the blessing. If you find 
yourself able to work with me, contact me through this email account. If you 
give me positive signals, I will initiate this process towards a conclusion. I 
wish to inform you that should you contact me via official channels; I will 
deny knowing you and about this project. I repeat, I do not want you 
contacting me through my official phone lines nor do I want you contacting me 
through my official email account. Contact me only through the numbers I will 
provide for you and also through this email address. I do not want any direct 
link between you and myself. My official lines are not secured lines as they 
are periodically monitored to assess our level of customer care in line with 
our Total Quality Management. 
 
 
Please, again, note I am a family man; I have a wife and children. I send you 
this mail not without a measure of fear as to what the consequences, but I 
know within me that nothing ventured is nothing gained and that success and 
riches never come easy or on a platter of gold. This is the one truth I have 
learned from my private banking clients. Do not betray 
my confidence. 
 
 
Sincerely, 
Amancio Slim
